DC for TV and big screen

[Flightpath07]

Some notes on DC tv and movie properties in the works.

If Goyer oversees everything, I won't be watching. I find his movies too serious, depressing, and colourless (see under 'Man Of Steel'.)

"So, what about the DC characters and properties that lie well outside the Justice League’s jurisdiction? Well, we know that filmmaker Guillermo del Toro (Pacific Rim) is hoping to find a place for his proposed Justice League Dark".

Hee hee hee... Justice League is outside the Justice League's jurisdiction?

There's not much other news in there, is there? Just that and Sleeper.

At least DC's tv properties are still kicking butt - aka Arrow. And The Flash is coming to tv, spinning off from the Arrow series.

Looks like Arrow is doing very well indeed!

Looks like Arrow is doing very well indeed!

That's unpossible!
Summer Glau joined the cast. That means it's due for premature cancellation.
Everybody knows that.

[Flightpath07]

So far, she has had a VERY small part.

[Le Messor]

That might save it. Chuck lasted a full season after her one-ep appearance.

Why a show like Arrow is doing just as well on the small screen as Marvel's movies are on the big-screen - just in a different medium.

Note also the reference to the massive drop in viewing numbers for Agents of SHIELD...

[Phil]

I wouldn't say 'just as well' as the two aren't anywhere near comparison in dollar terms, but I do enjoy Arrow a lot. Shield... not so much.

[Flightpath07]

Of the two, I also enjoy Arrow a LOT more. The characters in it actually seem to grow at a more normal rate, like people do in 'real life', whereas the character development in Agents is more blocky and jerky, a character gets pushed forward for a few seconds and shows growth, then that is pushed back to the background again until writers decide somebody else needs to 'grow'. Interaction between characters in Arrow seems more believable, too.

More superhero (etc) epics coming to the small screen!
